The regulation of emotions and feelings of students

In this research we have carried out an empirical analysis of the emotional regulation of future primary teachers, focused on the emotional dimension of first- and third-year students of different specialities. The aim is to provide clarifying data as regards the level of emotional intelligence of a sample of students, as well as their use of some of its dimensions in a problematic situation within the educational context. In the light of the results obtained, the characteristics of their socioemotional environment throughout their training as future primary teachers will be compared and analysed, making us think about the new challenges that the integration of the emotional dimension poses for initial teacher training within the context of the European Higher Education Area (EHEA).
